Cuyahoga River/Canal Access in Cuyahoga County provides multiple public access points along the 41-mile National Water Trail section, with facilities including parking, restrooms, ADA-accessible areas, and signage at key locations like Merwin's Wharf in downtown Cleveland and various trailheads throughout Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

The access points support both paddling (kayaks, canoes) and fishing, with calm beginner-friendly sections near the confluence and more challenging waters in the Cuyahoga Falls gorge area.

All boats must be registered, and life jackets are required for all passengers, with additional regulations enforced by the National Park Service in the park section.
